Kansas to Mississippi Auto Transport
Shipping a Car From Kansas to Mississippi
Overland Park to Tupelo is about 560 miles, through Memphis. Jackson is closer to 690, and Biloxi is around 860. Wichita to Jackson is about 760. Most moves take two days of driving.
Kansans head to Mississippi for warm winters and lower costs. Retirees winter on the Gulf Coast around Biloxi and Gulfport, families relocate to the Memphis suburbs in DeSoto County, and students head to Ole Miss and Mississippi State. We also ship for manufacturing and furniture-industry staff moving to the Tupelo area.
Door-to-door, a final-price quote, and $0 due at booking.

Timing
When to Ship Kansas to Mississippi
Snowbird season and Gulf weather drive the timing.
Fall Move South
October through December, southbound trucks fill up with Kansans heading to the Gulf. Book ahead.
Hurricane Season
June through November can affect the Gulf Coast. Keep a little slack in your dates.

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Kansas to Mississippi?
Here's what moves the price between Kansas and Mississippi.
Distance
North Mississippi is about 550 miles from Kansas City. The coast is closer to 860.
Via Memphis
Most trucks route through Memphis, a major freight hub, which helps keep prices competitive.
Delivery Area
Towns and suburbs are easy. Rural Delta roads take more planning.
Open or Enclosed
Open is the standard. Enclosed keeps hail off a nicer car in spring.
Vehicle Size
Pickups and full-size SUVs take more trailer space than sedans, so they cost more to ship.
Date Flexibility
A flexible window lets us catch a truck already heading south.

Before You Ship & After You Arrive
A few Mississippi-specific things worth knowing.
Registering in Mississippi
New residents have 30 days to title and register at the county tax collector's office. Mississippi doesn't require a safety or emissions inspection. Check dor.ms.gov for current requirements.
Wintering on the Coast
Spending winter in Biloxi or Gulfport? We'll ship the car down in the fall and back to Kansas in the spring.
Ole Miss and State Moves
Sending a car to a student in Oxford or Starkville? Give us the move-in date and we'll plan around it.
Kansas Pickups
HOA truck rules in Overland Park, Olathe, and Leawood subdivisions, game-day traffic in Lawrence and Manhattan, tight older streets in Wichita's College Hill and Riverside, and long gravel section roads out west can keep a big carrier off your street. If so, the driver will set up a nearby meeting spot, usually a lot just off I-35, I-70, I-135, I-435, or the Kansas Turnpike.
